Chapter 686 Rainstorm

It was already late when Lu Lu returned to the tent, and Zhao Yongke was always by his side.

When the two got into the tent one after the other, they didn't hear the previous snoring, and he couldn't help being slightly stunned. Zhang Shaofeng, Liang Kangbo, and Chen Xiuqing were actually still sitting on their respective mats. Seeing the two of them Come in and turn on the lights.

"Why don't you sleep?" Lu Lu glanced at the three of them.

"You're a big man who runs by the river to sing at night. You don't recognize your relatives, and you're covered in bruises. How can you sleep like this?"

Zhang Shaofeng glared at Lu Lu: "The key is that I actually think it sounds good!"

"What's your name?" Liang Kangbo also asked out loud.

Lu Lu was stunned again, and said casually: "I sang it nonsense. If I have to say it, it is the poem "Song of the Thatched House Broken by the Autumn Wind" by Du Fu, the poet sage."

He can't say that this is a song adapted by later generations.

"What broken song?" Chen Xiuqing was stunned.

Lu Lu didn't bother to explain: "Anyway, it's an ancient poem." If you talk too much, it will become more chaotic.

He actually sang it out of his heart today, feeling quite suitable for his mood, so he sang it involuntarily.

"This broken song makes sense...Old man, we are a little lost this time, you have to forgive us, you are right, there are endless ways to earn money in this world, and gold mining is of course easy to come by. Quick, but it only counts if you really bring it home and become your own. You can’t just focus on making money and don’t care about anything else.”

Zhang Shaofeng said seriously: "Tomorrow, we will backfill this last gold mining area, and then go home together. Like you said, let's come again when we find a chance."

"Being sung by you makes my heart open... I'm also thinking now, is that little brat in my family acting mischievous!"

Liang Kangbo also said apologetically: "I'm to blame for today's incident. It almost affected our brotherhood because of this incident. After all, it's actually your fault. Who asked you to lead us to pan for gold, but how many people are looking for it?" You have found so many things that you can't find at once. You have to forgive me!"

Lu Lu laughed when he heard the words: "I really miss my wife and children. I haven't heard him call me daddy a few times just now. It's been so long this time. I don't know if he will remember me when I go back." I."

"Come on, I know you are doing it for our own good. The more greedy we are, the more prone to problems. In addition to those robbers, there are also investigations in various places that we have passed. In addition to the current situation where everyone is in danger, we should indeed restrain ourselves point."

Zhang Shaofeng said with a smile: "This time, when we go back, the gold dust will be divided, and everyone will take it home. No one can spread the word. The wealth is not revealed. It's not good for others to think about it."

"By the way, after you go back, don't be in a hurry to get rid of the gold dust. Find a way to hide it yourself, and wait until the outside is stable." Lu Lu warned again.

The price of gold has been rising, and it is not worthwhile to sell it now. The key is to get some big unity and accumulate it in your hands, which is not very effective.

"Yeah!" Several people nodded slightly.

"Hurry up and sleep, you have to get up early tomorrow!"

Lu Lu urged: "It's been a long time since I've been on vigil. I'll come tonight. Anyway, I'll backfill it tomorrow, and we'll be on our way!"

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left the tent to increase the firewood outside.

Looking at the jumping flames, a smile appeared on Lu Lu's face.

Before he was by the river, he was thinking about how he should persuade these guys, but he didn't expect that a song he sent out of his feelings was actually wrong, and it would save a lot of money to solve this matter. tongue.

If they couldn't be persuaded, they insisted on staying here, and Lu Lu obviously couldn't leave them behind, otherwise it would be hard to explain when they went back.

What was even more frightening was that if something happened to them, he would be a big sinner.

Now, in my heart, I can finally breathe a little bit of relief.

Holding the semi-automatic, he just stood by the fire. After waiting for a long time, he heard snoring in the tent.

There is no moon at night, just a sky full of stars.

In the middle of the night, a drop of rainwater suddenly hit his face, and the cold feeling made Lu Lu's drowsy head suddenly clear.

Looking up at the sky, I don't know when, the stars all over the sky have long been invisible, and it is dark.

Immediately afterwards, there were crackling sounds on the branches and leaves of the surrounding forest.

"Fuck...it's going to rain heavily!"

He hurriedly got into the tent and called Yuanbao and the others in.

The people who were sleeping soundly in the tent were suddenly woken up, and they knew what was going on when they heard more and more violent noises coming from outside.Except for Chen Xiuqing, there was no movement at all.

"It's raining a lot!" Liang Kangbo turned over and sat up, and after listening for a while: "Our location, if the water floods, we should be fine, right?"

"It's quite a distance from the river ditch. You can tell by looking at the stones on the river bank that they probably won't come to us."

Lu Lu opened the curtain of the tent, stretched out his head and looked outside at the sizzling fire that was drenched in the rain in a blink of an eye: "This will save trouble, and you will be happy."

"What do you mean by that?" Zhang Shaofeng asked puzzled.

"If the water rises, we don't need to backfill and restore the places where we have panned for gold placers. They should be quickly silted up by sediment, and it doesn't look like they have been moved. Wouldn't this save trouble? Also, let's go down Heavy rain, we have to stay, we can't go. There are many big sauce jars in the forest, but it is not easy to wade through. You have to wait for the rain to stop and the weather to stabilize before you go. You can search for another two days. Gold."

Lu Lu sighed slightly: "God keeps people!" After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but yawned.

"Old Five, go to sleep for a while, I'll replace you!" Liang Kangbo got up and put on his coat: "The raindrops are crackling on the tent, and the sound is loud enough. I have slept for a long time. I guess I will I can't sleep for a while."

"It looks like it won't be long before dawn... okay, I'll lie down for a while!" Lu Lu said, pulled out his mattress and laid it down, put his clothes together and lay down.

The place where he slept was near the entrance of the tent, the purpose was to hear Yuan Bao's calls in time and respond immediately.

He was really sleepy, and it didn't take long for him to fall asleep under the disturbance of the crackling noise from the tent.

When Lu Lu woke up, it was almost ten o'clock in the morning.

He turned over and sat up and looked through the opened door curtain. It was foggy outside, but the rain had stopped.

Chen Xiuqing was watching the newly lit fire at the door, cooking breakfast, and no one else was in the tent.

Lu Lu stretched, got up and got out of the tent to take a look. As he expected, Zhang Shaofeng and the others were panning for gold in the muddy water by the river.

"Qingzi, when did the rain stop?" Lu Lu asked casually.

"It stopped for more than two hours, and the sun came out for a while, and soon there was fog in the valley."

"There is no wind in the valley, so fog is normal."

It stopped two hours ago, so the rain did not last long, but the amount of rain in a short period of time was not small. It was a torrential rain that came and went quickly. The width of the river in the valley doubled. times.

In this kind of weather, even if the horses can swim again, they dare not ride across the river, and if they don't cross the river, they have to go around a long way in many places.

Just waiting for the water level to drop...

Ok?

Looking at the mud-covered sandy beach, Lu Lu hesitated for a moment. He suddenly felt that the rain came just in time.

After being washed by the flood, will many of the dog's head gold that were originally hidden in the sand be washed out again?

He felt that it was necessary to wait until the water became thinner and the river became clearer to see the situation. If the dog's head gold appeared, it would be worth picking it up.

Since you can't leave, you can only join.

Lu Lu also mentioned the wooden dustpan and joined the ranks of several people panning for gold.

As for the birch bark used to build the chute and divert water, it had already been washed away by the water.

People are ready to go, but there is no need to rebuild.

By the way, Lu Lu also shared his thoughts with a few people, and they actually had some thoughts to keep in their hearts, so naturally they couldn't wish for it.

This wait lasted for two days, the vegetation was luxuriant, the river became clear quickly, and the sun came out.

The first thing Lu Lu did when he woke up in the morning was to walk downstream towards the river beach.

While walking, I really saw some dog-head gold that had been washed out here and there. I hurriedly greeted a few people, and walked along both sides of the river to look for the Guanmen Mountain below.

It's just a simple pick-up, and the speed is fast.

In the morning, I searched the ore vein area of ​​more than ten miles, and picked up more than two catties of dog's head gold.

After a simple breakfast, Lu Lu called a few people, packed up the luggage, and put it on the horse's back. And these days, the agates they found in the gold panning were full of a snakeskin bag, and they were divided into several bags. In the bag, each horse helped to carry a little. As for the placer gold and dog's head gold they got, each of them took some separately, and then followed Lu Lu to several other mine veins.

In the afternoon, I searched again in the two ore veins, and spent the night looking for a place. On the next morning, when I went to the last remaining ore vein, not long after the matter was in progress, Yuan Bao suddenly let out a cry Voice.

someone!

In the middle reaches of the river.

This five-six-kilometer river is exactly what I said in my stomach. The middle reaches are where gold deposits are rich.

Could it be that someone is panning for gold on it?

Lu Lu frowned slightly: "You guys wait here, I'll go up and have a look!"

After he finished speaking, he led the ingots and moved them upstream along the ditch. After going up for a while, he saw a group of seven or eight people coming down the ditch.

I could vaguely hear conversations, but I couldn't make out what was being said, but I could see that these people were paying a lot of attention to the shallows of the river, walking around from time to time, and digging a few times.

This vein has been discovered!

Lu Lu can conclude.

He raised his semi-automatic rifle, looked through the scope, and found that they were all unfamiliar faces, several of them were armed with guns, and the leader was an Oroqen man.

Lu Lu was a little relieved that he hadn't met before.

He also didn't want to let these people see that he was carrying a lot of gold dust on his body at this time. If he was discovered, he might be targeted, and he was just asking for trouble.

Goutoujin can be seen on the bottom of the river and on the shoals. Among other things, such a place can be named in the Oroqen language like Xiaoxiergenqihe, which means that Oroqen people have been there long ago.

Lu Lu retreated silently, thinking it was the best policy to go, and didn't want to cause more trouble.

Who knows, not long after returning, he suddenly heard gunshots from above.

Lu Lu suddenly turned his head, raised his gun and looked through the scope, and saw that the leader of the Oroqen had fallen to the ground.
